Big Foot

Big Foot's Feet

Little Foot and Cookie

Munchy

I volunteered at a shelter back in 2001 and one day while I was there, this little kitten with these BIG feet climbed out of his basket and up my arm and proceeded to lick my face. I was in love. When I went to inquire about him, they said no one wanted him because of his big feet. I snatched him up right away, along with a nother regular DSH/calico mix. Big Foot has been my right hand throughout the 10 years I have had him. He is the most loyal, loving, playful, and gentle cat I have ever had. He and the DSH/calico ended up having babies before the scheduled spaying and she gave birth to 4. 2 of the kittens also had the extra toes. We named one Munchkin (since he was tiny) and the other Little Foot (since she looked exactly like daddy - except she had many more toes). I still have Big Foot and his kitty family and they are all just the best cats. I had a baby 2 years ago and they all so gentle with him even when he was getting rough in the beginning. I could not imagine my life without my Big Foot. I already plan on getting a cat with the extra toes somehow someway whenever the time comes that I no longer have Big Foot and his family.

Comments for Big Foot

It never ceases to amaze me how anyone would NOT want a lovely kitten simply because it is polydactyl... Those paws are simply adorable :) I'm sure BigFoot immediately recognized you as his Purrrson when you came to the shelter. Cats do choose their people, I am 100% sure of that! I've twice been chosen by a cat - my very first cat Misu, and then of course Rolli who writes the diary here on this website.

Leena's Books

Tutankhamun

This book travels with the King Tut - Treasures of the Golden Pharaoh -exhibition on its world tour of ten cities from March 2018 onwards

Tutankhamun: In My Own Hieroglyphs tells the story, for older children, of the life and afterlife of the famous young pharaoh in his own words. Tutankhamun tells us about the trouble he got into as a child in Akhenaten's palace in the new city of Akhetaten, and how he became a boy pharaoh. As we learn, his life changed a lot when he died as a teenager, and long years of boredom started in his tomb with only his pet monkey Fingers and his treasure for company. He did meet some of the Egyptian gods, of course, and had fun scaring off tomb robbers, but it was mostly rather dull. Then one day, some new and strange people, including a Mr. Howard Carter, arrived and began to take all the treasures out of his royal tomb. Fortunately, through the eyes of his beautiful golden mask, Tutankhamun, could have fun again traveling around the world

Mr Mummific

An ancient friend of mine, Mr Mummific dictated a book about how he became a mummy - and I was his scribe and artist. The book is available at Amazon.com and Amazon.co.uk

Another hilarious adventure for children with Mr Mummific, the mummy with attitude. He now tells the story of his mishaps, misunderstandings and misadventures as he leaves his tomb through the False Door to embark on the complicated and hazardous journey to the Afterlife aboard the magnificent Ship of Millions.

The Nephilim Quest Series

The first book in an epic fantasy series based on human mythology. The search for the mythical Watchers, the angels who fathered the Nephilim, the half-angels. A story that moves on three levels - our times, ancient Greece and ancient Egypt.
